Пра гэту электронную кнігу
The New York Times Top Ten Bestseller.
From the author of Writers & Lovers, Euphoria is Lily King’s gripping novel inspired by the true story of a woman who changed the way we understand our world.
‘Pretty much perfect . . . about a Margaret Mead-like character in New Guinea in the 30s, and it's so smart and rich and alive.’ – Curtis Sittenfeld, author of Romantic Comedy
In 1933 three young, gifted anthropologists are thrown together in the jungle of New Guinea. They are Nell Stone, fascinating, magnetic and famous for her controversial work. Her intelligent but aggressive husband Fen, who is uneasy with her success. And Andrew Bankson, who stumbles into the lives of this strange couple and becomes totally enthralled by Nell.
The trio start to produce their best ever work, but within this passionate love triangle a firestorm of love and jealousy begins to burn out of control, threatening their bonds, their careers and, ultimately, their lives . . .
‘Lily King is one of our great literary treasures’ – Madeline Miller, author of The Song of Achilles
‘Dazzling’ – Emma Donoghue, author of Room
‘Taut, witty, fiercely intelligent . . . a love triangle in extremis’ – The New York Times
